Synopsis:

Week in Review: 4-8 November 2024 - Trump Wins!!!

Financial Markets For the week, the main stock market indices were UP, with the S&P500 gaining 4.7% and the NASDAQ 100 5.4% in the green. The small cap index (Russel 2000) got pumped by 8.7%. Precious metals are retracing a bit these days. Gold and silver fell 1.9% and 3.5%, respectively. Recently, silver broke below 32$ and is now probably going towards the 30$ level. WTI is around the 70$ level, which is short-term support. Oil will likely trade sideways in the near future (68-72$). Bitcoin spiked 17% this week, breaking above the 74k level. It can re-test this level again before continuing to the upside (or breaking back below!). The relative strength of the US dollar (DXY) was up by 0.6%. The EUR/USD is around 1.07$, the GBP/USD is at 1.29$, and the USD/JPY is at 152.6 JPY. US M2 money supply at the date of 30th September 2024 was up by 0.38%.

WTI fell 4.2% and is holding the 68$ level. Oil will likely trade sideways in the near future (67-72$). Bitcoin is around 97000$ and seems like it will have some trouble going above 100k... The relative strength of the US dollar (DXY) hit resistance and fell to ~106. The EUR/USD is around 1.05$, the GBP/USD is at 1.27$, and the USD/JPY is at 149.7 JPY.

Trading volumes were average during the week but declined on Friday. Precious metals remain strong. Gold continues making new all-time-highs - now at 3084$/oz. Silver gained 3.3% and is going to re-test the 34-35$ level again. WTI is still close to support and went up by 1.1% to ~69$/bbl. If it continues falling, the next support levels are at 64 and 62$. Bitcoin fell 4.3%, contradicting the previous week's move. It is essentially trading sideways, like the equity market. The key resistance and support levels on Bitcoin, for the short term, are 92k$ and 72-74k$, respectively. The relative strength of the US dollar (DXY) was essentially unchanged and is still at 104.
